How to Use This Elkton, Florida Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Elkton, Florida. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Florida or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Elkton.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Elkton, Florida

Elkton is a locality in Hills County, Florida, United States. Elkton is located at 27.8207°N, 82.3392°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 33578, 32033.

Elkton defines the low-slung horizon where the land softens into subtropical moisture and the heavy, salt-flecked breath of Tampa Bay. It lies 3.2 miles south-southwest of Riverview, FL (from Riverview, FL: bearing 194°T), and is situated 8.7 miles south-southwest of Brandon. Bullfrog Creek serves as the primary artery of the landscape, its dark, slow-moving waters carving a path through the dense, tangled palmetto scrub and cypress thickets that define the local terrain. The air here holds a permanent, humid weight, often illuminated by the sudden, jagged violet of afternoon lightning that crackles above the flat expanse. Within this humid expanse, South Pointe Park offers a quiet threshold where the terrestrial world yields to the coastal influence, providing a vantage point to view the distant, shimmering outline of Green Key against the tide.

Elkton maintains a deliberate, quiet pace, shaped by a history of agricultural patience and the slow accumulation of seasonal cycles. The local economy persists in the rhythm of the soil and the proximity to the water, favoring modest industry over the frantic pace of the nearby coastal hubs. Residents go about their days under a sun that bleaches the color from the wooden fences, mindful of the sixteen-mile distance to the cooling presence of Lake Thonotosassa or the far-off, rugged silhouette of Big Cockroach Mound. Life in Elkton remains tied to the immediate geography, a place where the proximity to the bay dictates the temperament of the seasons and the slow, steady endurance of the people living between the creek and the shore.

About This Elkton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Elkton, Florida. Coordinates: 27.8207, -82.3392. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Elkton includes the ZIP code (33578, 32033), telephone area code (407, 321, 850), county seat of Hills County, and school district assignment.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
